Whether you’re making soup, adding broth to your recipes for flavor, or sipping on broth for the nutrients, homemade broth can be made any time of year in any home.
This simple homemade broth recipe utilizes what we often consider trash. Make use of the chicken skin, bones, and scraps that are often thrown away by making this homemade broth recipe.
Broth (whether chicken broth or bone broth) provides extra nutrients our bodies crave. We need the extra fats and salts, not to mention the probiotics that come from boiling the chicken leftovers. And considering broth is essentially tasteless, it’s easy to add into savory OR sweet concoctions for added nutrients.
You’ll be surprised how easy this homemade bone broth recipe really is!
{INGREDIENTS}
Bones + skin/fat from one whole cooked chicken
Vegetable ends (carrots, celery, onions, etc.) OPTIONAL
1 TBSP salt
1 TBSP dried parsley (or one bunch fresh) OPTIONAL
1 tsp salt
8 cups water
splash of apple cider vinegar
{INSTRUCTIONS}
Add all ingredients into Instapot or large stock pot. For Instapot, close lid tightly and ensure valve is sealed. Turn on manual setting for 90 minutes. After timer goes off, let broth rest in Instapot for about an hour. Then release steam before opening lid and allowing to cool.
For stock pot, bring broth to a simmer and cook on low for up to 8 hours (4 hours will suffice). For both, use a strainer to catch chicken and veggies and reserve all broth. Allow to fully cool, then store in fridge for a week or freezer for six months.
